First baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is returning to the Toronto Blue Jays' lineup after missing the past few days with a knee injury.

He will bat third and serve as designated hitter Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Guerrero missed games Sunday, Monday and Tuesday after incurring what manager John Schneider described as a "minor" knee contusion on Saturday.

Matheson adds that should all go well, the native Torontonian will play in Grapefruit League action Sunday. 

The 40-year-old slashed .202/.314/.433 with 14 home runs and 38 RBI in 65 games last season for the Cincinnati Reds.
